RACIAL AND CULTURAL TRAUMA 

When people of color are subjected to experiences of stigma, prejudice, discrimination, and racism as a regular occurrence, it is important to recognize the emotional and mental toll can it take. Many BIPOC clients often report feelings of low self-esteem, self-rejection, anxiety, or depression. These chronic stressors over time can lead to poor health outcomes. 

​

As a person of color, I acknowledge there is no one singular BIPOC experience and space is held for exploration of your identity and life experiences. I utilize a multicultural approach and am mindful of immigrant background, especially noting the importance of ethnic heritages and polylingual perspectives in understanding the world and processing your traumas.
